+* Noteworthy changes in release 1.6 (2013-06-09) [stable]
+
+** New features
+
+ gzip now accepts the --keep (-k) option, for consistency with tools
+ like xz, lzip and bzip2. With this option, gzip no longer removes
+ named input files when compressing or decompressing.
+
+** Bug fixes
+
+ gzip -d no longer malfunctions with certain invalid data in 'pack' format.
+ [bug introduced in gzip-0.8]
+
+ When overwriting, gzip no longer acts as if you typed "y" when you type "n",
+ on some platforms when compiled with optimization.
+ [bug introduced in gzip-1.3.6]
+
+ zgrep no longer malfunctions with a multi-digit context option like -15.
+ Now, it passes that option to grep (equivalent to -C15) just as it does
+ for single-digit options. [bug introduced in gzip-1.3.12]
+
+ zmore now acts more like 'more', and is more portable to POSIXish hosts.
+
+
+* Noteworthy changes in release 1.5 (2012-06-17) [stable]
+
+** Bug fixes
+
+ gzip -d now decodes and checks header CRC16 checksums as specified by
+ the FHCRC section of Internet RFC 1952.
+
+ "gzip -d -S '' precious.gz" is now rejected immediately. Before,
+ that command would emulate "rm -i precious.gz", but with an easily-
+ misunderstood prompt. I.e., gzip would ask if it's ok to remove the
+ existing file, "precious.gz". If you made the mistake of saying "yes",
+ it would remove that input file before attempting to uncompress it.
+
+ gzip -cdf now properly handles input consisting of gzip'd data followed
+ by uncompressed data. Before it would output raw compressed input, too.
+ For example, now "(printf x|gzip; echo y)|gzip -dcf" prints "xy\n",
+ while before it would print "x<compressed data>y\n".
+
+ gzip -rf no longer compresses files more than once (e.g., replacing
+ FOO with FOO.gz.gz) on file systems such as ZFS where a readdir
+ loop that unlinks and creates files can revisit output files.
